@RoseTeanby 😍

At the home of photography #Lacock Abbey with the amazing Jo Gane re-creating a Photogenic Drawing taken by Constance Talbot in May 1839. Over 3 hours to register an image in sunny weather! This project will feature in my talk for Photo Oxford 2025. Photo by Andy Cochrane.

@wayneford Thanks very much:)

@heathertweed Great:) thanks very much for listening

@anna_sparham Thank you for the RPS talk last night. I’ll be seeking her work out 📷🎞️

A brief pilgrimage today to see the newly installed blue plaque for Christina Broom at her once home in Fulham. Thanks to the efforts of Dr Margaret Denny who made the application several years ago and to which I eagerly gave my support.

Thanks very much to @mikeyp4 and @RPShistgroup for the lovely review of 100 Photographs in The PhotoHistorian.

@rachsh @brumdispatch Glad Pete rightly runs throughout the piece. A collection, place, its history and its potential close to so many of our hearts.

@CeliaRichards0n Love it

We returned to the scene of our 1st family holiday and I made husband and son recreate this pic. The splendid thing was that husband happened to have the exact same jumper he wore 16 years ago, in his bag. You can’t make old friends.

@jo_gane @ageukcw @patinotype Cherry on top:)

@anna_sparham @ageukcw @patinotype Also, Stanley got a tigger hat and I got a vintage paisley summer dress.

The most amazing charity shop buy ever, thanks to @ageukcw for taking care to find me with original letters and materials relating to @patinotype and George Shaw. Tom in the Leamington shop is brilliant and deserves 👏. So glad these important documents are now safely on my desk

Happy birthday Kodak! I have been reliably informed by my t-shirt that it is 135 years since #GeorgeEastman patented the first Kodak roll-film camera alongside the hugely successful 'You press the button, we do the rest' slogan 📸 #kodak

Our pop up darkroom can be found in the Botanic Garden for #pinholecamera workshops on 19th August for #worldphotographyday. No need to book, just drop by between 10.30am and 3.30pm to try your hand at this very #analogue method of capturing light.
